1. "They want to hold a seance and go dressed as bunnies.""What kind of bunnies?" he asked suspiciously."Playboy, I think. Whatever that means.""That sounds about right." Xavier laughed. "But don't let them talk you into anything you don't feel comfortable with.""They're my friends.""So what?" He shrugged. "If your friends walked off a cliff, would you do it too?""Why would they walk off a cliff?" I asked in alarm. "Is someone having problems at home?"Xavier laughed. "It's just an expression.""It's silly," I told him. "Do you think I should go as an angel? Like in the film version of Romeo and Juliet?""There would be a certain irony in that," Xavier said, smirking. "An angel posing as a human posing as an angel.I like it."Author: Alexandra Adornetto

2. "Was I just curious about what the agenda might be at a vampire summit? Did I want the attention of more undead members of society?

4. "A boy adopts a hero for two reasons: because a hero captivates his soul and serves as a projection of his innermost self; and, because a hero seems to have solved many problems that may worry a boy, or at least demonstrates the capacity to solve them. The hero is an idealization of successful living, even though he may die in a story. The death may be gallant, brave, tragic, or perhaps even foolhardy. But living or dead, a hero is the stylistic embodiment of living on one's own terms – noble terms, grand terms, exciting terms – terms, in short, that complement any youth's uncorrupted, untamed, unabridged projection of what is possible to him in life"Author: Edward Cline

But if I told you the really bad stuff, you'd think I have problems."Author: Karen Traviss

8. "A few weeks ago, Abdul had seen a boy's hand cut clean off when he was putting plastic into one of the shredders. The boy's eyes had filled with tears but he hadn't screamed.

(Another coupley thing to do.)We are talking about my best friend, his girlfriend, and their secret problems that she somehow neglected to tell me.

Mercer cringes slightly, as if expecting the dog to explode.Nothing happens."All right," Polly Cradle says, and then, pro forma, "Bastion, you're a very naughty boy.""Yes," Mercer says acidly.

By all means, chide him severely with your voice. That will solve everyone's problems."Author: Nick Harkaway

So now you have two problems."Author: Nora Raleigh Baskin

You've gotta take her out to lunch, take her to a movie, and then spend time listenin' to all her stupid problems. Look, look at Stan right there. [Kyle turns to see Stan, who's listening to Wendy over at the merry-go-round] Why he's gotta sit there and listen to her stupid motherfuckin' problems 'cause she kisses him. If you ask me, that's a lot more than the five dollars my company charges."Author: Trey Parker
